general kind of encroachment of river is constructing a bridge on it. purpose of encroachment of river is occupation part of river and flood plain for constructing bridge. often being economical of bridge innovation affirmated that most of encroachment take place to river and flood plain, which this encroachment can be in form of embankment in flood plain of river or into the main bed of river ...

Semi-automatic flood extraction procedures based on change detection techniques appear particularly adapted to plain flood monitoring and mapping. The change detector was specifically elaborated to analyse ENVISAT ASAR Wide Swath Mode data pairs, which appear very well adapted to flood monitoring over wide areas. The algorithm is based on two analysis levels: an enhanced ratio for strong change...

Development of cities and villages, agricultural farms and industrial regions in abutment and/or in the course of streams and rivers or in prone flood lands has been caused more notations in hydrology problems and city planning topics. In order to protection of cities against of flood damages, embankment construction is a desired and scientific method. The cities that located in arid zones may ...

Design flood estimation is often required in hydrologic practice such as design of hydraulic structures and flood plain management. In flood estimation, use of rainfall runoff models is frequently adopted which convert selected rainfall events into the corresponding streamflow events. In Australia, runoff routing model is frequently adopted as the preferred method of rainfall runoff modeling. T...

Climatic variability, unplanned land use pattern and encroachment into the flood plain are affecting the hydrology of Bagmati river basin of Nepal. In this study, methodology to improve present flood management system with non-structural countermeasures has been elaborated. Study of hydrological condition, basin scale rainfall runoff modeling and inundation analysis is helpful to prepare commun...

The objective of this study is to generate a flood hazard map based on geomorphologic approach employing Shuttle Radar Topographic Mission (SRTM) DEM and satellite image data (ASTER and LANDSAT). Supervised classification of satellite images is implemented to characterize land cover types. Moreover, the Modified Normalized Difference Water Index (MNDWI) is undertaken to identify moist surface o...
